I wonder how much of this is economy versus Elon wanting to instill the type of workforce he wants by replacing the cause at the source. Similar to how companies make no politics policies and then give people that don't like that a generous severance.
- paulcole 4y agoProbably 0 to do with Elon given that he hasn’t bought Twitter yet. Who cares what he wants to do when he hasn’t written the check yet?
- weezin 4y agoTrue, but their hiring freeze was pretty close to the acquisition announcement. So I feel like that is partly to blame.
- j_mo 4y agoI'd imagine it's entirely due to the economic downturn, as most high growth tech companies have slashed hiring this year.
- anothernewdude 4y agoThey have, but this is a long-term play. Slowing hiring is one thing, but slowing your ability to ramp up is commitment to slowing hiring for a long time in the future.
